The Oklahoma City Thunder announced on Friday that Jeremiah Robinson-Earl had been assigned to the G League’s OKC Blue.
This move is likely designed for Robinson-Earl to gain practice and playing time with the Blue as he works his way back from a sprained ankle that has kept him out since Dec. 12.
The Blue are scheduled to play on Saturday afternoon while the Thunder are scheduled to play on Saturday night against the Houston Rockets at home. This could allow the scenario of Robinson-Earl playing for the Blue and being activated for the Thunder game.
In 26 games, Robinson-Earl is averaging 8.5 points and five rebounds.
